It's almost like Universities should be hiring people because they're actually qualified for the job and not just because they're leftwing ideologues who check off woke DEI boxes like Claudine Gay!!! https://t.co/K9Fq12DiAY
Btw, they should have outright fired her (or better yet, never hired her given her lack of credentials relative to past Harvard Presidents) for how she failed to confront anti-Semitism before the extent of her plagiarism became evident. But all’s well that ends well I suppose. Hope the Board exercises better judgment in the future.
Her resignation is proof the Board had enough. Seriously doubt this was her decision, based on her less-than-apologetic email to us alums.

How do you feel about the owners failing to confront it here?

White liberals are all racist. They consider anyone with skin darker than theirs to have the same upbringing as Oprah in The Color Purple.
This is why people like Gay and Kamala Harris and Barack Obama who have absolutely no connection to the actual African-American culture or experience are treated like they overcame slavery to get where they are.
Another wyt boy who thinks they can speak about African-Americans and African-America culture. 99% of African-Americans think you are full of sh**. The audacity of folks like you who think they know anything about African-Americans. Then at every opportunity discredit and lie about them.
Gay, Vice President Harris and President Obama have all been treated with prejudice and discrimination during their lives simple because of the color or their skin by people like you.
Neither the resignation from Claudine Gay nor the statement from the Harvard Corporation included any apology for the morally bankrupt testimony. Neither statement included any mention of their failure to protect Jewish students on campus or a pledge to combat antisemitism.
Its amazing how she bashed whites for over a decade., 2 weeks after she bashed Jews. GONE.
Didn't even bash any Jews.
Was dragged before Congress along with Magill and was asked to respond to something that never happened in their campuses....calls to genocide Jews. Did not give the answer the Lobby demanded. Note that the 3rd college president dragged before Congress and given the same question, president of MIT, gave similar answer but seems to have escaped the mob. Kornbluth.
Isn't she the one that still supports lying sack of sh*t George Santos? She's in no position to call anyone "morally bankrupt". She should be calling for Mike Johnson to be expelled from the house for supporting lying George Santos.
Amazing to see so many people triggered by the existence of higher education. Why is that? The appointment of a Harvard President has zero impact on these losers' lives yet they are so obsessed.

Guess Ackman is in charge of who gets to be a college president
He's an activist investor - his big skill is stirring $hit up. He personally didn't like how they responded so he's been kicking and screaming to cause problems... and unfortunately it's becoming clear that donor funds are at risk here which is why they forced Gay to resign. It's sad that a school buckles under political pressure like this, but they probably figured this is the fastest way to make the dust settle quickly and for everyone to move on. This literally changes nothing else though.

trollie come on. Every week more examples of her shoddy scholarship were coming out. Her scholarship was embarrassingly light even before her plagiarism was illuminated. Combine lack of distinguished output (not even one book!) and shoddy scholarly apparatus and her tenure was untenable.
